If you ever meet a guy and you fall in love with him, but because of some weird genetic mutation he doesn't seem to return the feeling?... Wear that dress.
Ann BrasharesDon't ask me any questions right now. I'm grumpy and I'll probablly make fun of you. -Effie Kaligaris
Ann BrasharesLove who you love while you have them. That's all you can do. Let them go when you must. If you know how to love, you'll never run out.
Ann BrasharesIt was a blessing and also a curse of handwritten letters that unlike email you couldn’t obsessively reread what you’d written after you’d sent it. You couldn’t attempt to un-send it. Once you’d sent it it was gone. It was an object that no longer belonged to you but belonged to your recipient to do with what he would. You tended to remember the feeling of what you’d said more than the words. You gave to object away and left yourself with the memory. That was what it was to give.
